Dale Jr, Hamlin headline drivers pulling double duty this weekend

Monday, March 2, 2015

Dale Earnhardt Jr., Denny Hamlin and nine others will be trying to pull off a feat accomplished only twice in Las Vegas Motor Speedway history - sweep both the Sprint Cup and Xfinity Series races at LVMS.

If one of these drivers pulls off the sweep he would join Jeff Burton in 1999 and Brad Keselowski last year as the only drivers to sweep the weekend.

Headlining the entries for the Kobalt 400 are Jeff Gordon, who will make his final Sprint Cup start at LVMS, defending race winner Keselowski, four-time Vegas winner Jimmie Johnson as well as previous Kobalt 400 winners Matt Kenseth, Tony Stewart and Carl Edwards. Gordon will be the only driver to have started all 18 Sprint Cup events at LVMS.
